WARREN — Trumbull County commissioners will wait to obtain more information before deciding whether to support Shepherd of the Valley’s request to refinance an existing bond issue so the nonprofit can build a new facility in Columbiana County.

Officials with Shepherd of the Valley earlier this month asked the commissioners to support refinancing a bond that was approved in 2013.

Matthew A. Stuczynski of MAS Financial Advisory Services LLC, municipal adviser for Trumbull County, told commissioners at their workshop meeting Tuesday that supporting Shepherd of the Valley’s refinance request would not financially obligate the county to repay whatever amount is borrowed even if the company cannot repay the lending agency. Stuczynski’s firm has advised the county since 2015.
